Combination of a sorting grid and a square mesh panel to optimize size selection in the North-East Arctic cod (Gadus morhua) and redfish (Sebastes spp.) trawl fisheries
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-12-27)
Sorting grids and square mesh panels are the two most-applied technical devices to supplement codend size- and species-selection in demer-
sal trawls. In the Barents Sea gadoid fishery, the compulsory size-selectivity system comprises a mesh section with a sorting grid followed by a
diamond mesh codend. We tested the size-selective performance of a new sorting section that comprised a sorting grid ...
Size selection of Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides) in the Norwegian bottom trawl fishery with a newly developed double grid system
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017)
Greenland halibut (<i>Reinhardtius hippoglossoides</i>) is a commercially important species in the northeast Atlantic trawl fishery. However, direct fishing for it is not allowed and it can only be harvested as bycatch. We investigated for the first time the size selection of Greenland halibut in a newly developed double steel grid system designed for the cod and haddock bottom trawl fishery. In ...
The effect of semi-pelagic trawling on american plaice (hippoglossoides platessoides) by-catch reduction in the northeast arctic shrimp fishery
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017)
The present study reports results of a small-scale preliminary experiment to evaluate whether lifting trawl doors and sweeps from the seabed can lead to a reduction of by-catch in the Northeast Arctic shrimp trawl fishery. We carried out a catch comparison and catch ratio analysis between two gear configurations: one with trawl doors and sweeps on the seabed (traditional rigging) and the other with ...
